Before you Embed the video...
Before you can embed a video you must first find one.
Follow simple steps:
search your video on you tube - you can certainly find good material in the Teacher Tube version.
make sure you watch the entire video before you decide to post in in your wiki page. You do not want to encounter problems with the content of the video later on, when your students come back to you and tell you they found it offensive.
Check that the comments that follow the video are also appropriate. Often videos are posted and let live on the net. Without monitoring what happens to the site, anyone can go and place inappropriate language (English or otherwise) and you may find it problematic to use the resource.
Check how many people have been visiting the site. Usually popularity supports the fact that the video will remain available for a longer period of time.
Check the source if possible - follow the links to the individual or organization that posted the video and learn about them.
Make sure the "embed this video" link is available on the site - if the owner of the video has removed it you cannot embed the video in your wiki - but you can still share the link.
